Would you have bid higher on the #1? I bid $1610 on #2 and lost, #1 was on my watch list, I was busy and forgot to bid on it, was also kind of over budget from my previous auctions, so wasn't paying that much attention.
#1 is my choice. I think 1 and 2 are more of a slider type coin, while number 3 is more of a strong detailed AU, but without the luster of that of 1 and 2.
WOW! You guys are eating up that gold toned buffalo.. Too bad because I think it's not nearly as well struck as #1.. Plus, it's a very unique market you're dealing with when it comes time to sell good ole Goldie locks.
Just because people like other coins does not mean you have to criticize them. You asked for an opinion, got it, and now you are critiquing it in a critical and negative tone. Stop speaking like you're the almighty expert (this is a slight exaggeration, but at least I can back up my claims and opinions).
#1 Though #2 is a close second. I'm just not a fan of the golden toning on a nickel, even though it's common. different strokes for different folks. #3 doesn't look good to me from that photo. Would like to see all 3 in hand before pulling the trigger on any or all of them though a photos can be deceptive (intentionally or unintentionally).
I would guess #3 would look as good as 1 and 2 if the image had been taken by the same person at the same time as 1 and 2. I didn't vote on the best coin. Can't tell. I would vote on the image of #1 as being the best image of the three.
Thanks guys, #1 is my fav. again, I just think it's better struck on the obverse. The reverse on the two are about the same.
Hey, guess what else is great language? You're reported. I feel you're spamming my thread. So get lost!
